Sam's Club's previous slogan was "We Are In Business For Small Business" until 2006, the decision to remove the slogan comes as Sam's Club attempts to remove itself from serving just small businesses and open up to more individual customers. In December 2007. Sam's Club launched a new slogan, "Enjoy the Possibilities". Since then it became an official advertising slogan, mentioned in television and radio advertisements, but it is not mentioned on its website. As of early January 2008 the "Enjoy the Possibilities" slogan was no longer in use. Sam's Club launched their latest slogan "Savings Made Simple" in the fourth quarter of 2009.

[12] On January 24, 2010, it was announced that approximately 11,200 Sam's Club employees would be laid off. The layoffs resulted from the decision to outsource product sampling duties to an outside company (Rogers, Arkansas-based Shopper Events, which already performs in-store product demonstrations for Walmart) and to eliminate New Business Membership Representative positions throughout the chain. Most of the laid-off employees were part-time and represented about 10% of the total Sam's Club workforce.

Sam’s Club by Louise | August 9th, 2011 | Shopping Secrets ADVERTISEMENT When you think of warehouse club chains, three names come to mind: Costco, BJ’s, and Sam’s Club. Which of these giants is the best of the bunch? Here’s an overview of the three businesses: Costco– Based on total sales volume, Costco is the largest warehouse club chain in America, and it is the ninth largest retailer in the world. There are over 422 locations in the U.S., and more than 100 locations in other countries around the globe, such as Japan, the U.K., and even Australia. Most locations offer a “food court,” which also offers cheap prices, such as a quarter-pound hot dog and 20 oz. drink for just $1.50, the same price since 1985. An individual annual membership fee is $50. BJ’s– BJ’s only operates in the East Coast states and in Ohio, so this business is not an option for everyone. It is the only warehouse club of the three to accept manufacturer’s coupons, which can give the prices at BJ’s a bit of an edge, though it all depends on what you’re buying.

In case you were wondering, the B and J in the store name stands for Beverly Jean, a founder’s daughter. Membership at BJ’s also costs $50. Sam’s– Sam’s Club is owned and operated by Wal-Mart. It ranks second to Costco in sales volume, though it has a greater number of locations (over 600 in the U.S. and a few locations in Brazil, China, and Mexico). A membership costs $40, slightly less than at the other two. Some people say that Costco gives out better samples. Some say that they won’t become a member at Sam’s Club, because of its Wal-Mart ties. Meanwhile, others are a member at all three. Ultimately, these stores are quite similar. All three offer “rewards cash” if an additional annual fee is paid. If you are looking into a membership at one of these businesses, you might as well pick the one that’s closest to home. If the options are equidistant, it might be worthwhile visiting both stores to compare prices on items you are most likely to buy. It is also possible that one store offers an item that the other doesn’t offer; in-store selection varies in all three based on store location.

Unfortunately, there simply isn’t a clear-cut winner among the three.
